Maintenance of watercourses for riparian owners
Dear resident,
As you may or may not know, under the Land Drainage Act 1991, it is the responsibility of all riparian owners to maintain the watercourses that are within or adjacent to the boundaries of their properties. Please inspect the watercourse in your ownership and undertake any necessary maintenance work; you should ensure that the watercourse is in such a condition that flow can discharge unobstructed.
